Is There Hidden Cause for Most
| Suffering? a Careful Investi.
CATION.
| The inhabitants OF Boston and New Eng.
| land have been considerably awakened the
| past week over some important facts which
have come out in articles in the papers as
to the real cause Of most modern diseases.
Every one has known that there has been
some mysterious cause for unexplained suf-
fering, that even the doctors could not &C.
count'for. A hidden disease has been shown
to be the real cause of most so-caled pneu-
monia, convulsons, apoplexy, etc. III this

CLEVELAND AT THE CAPITOL.

Why the President Left the White
House at the Last Moment.
WASHINGTON, March At was un-
derstOod up'to late hour of the FORE
noon that the President would not occupy
his room at the Capitol, as has been the
custom of his predecessors, but never
theless he came, being Influenced, doubt
less, TO some extent by messages sent to
him from members of both branches
Speaker Carlisle telegraphed at IL O'CLOCK
that the Presidents presence was
necessary to save the District of Co
lumoia and deficiency bills, which
could not be enrolled In time to
reach the White House, over a mile
away. Senators Sherman and Salisbury,
the committee appointed at IL O'Clock on
the part Of the Senate to notify the Presi-
dent that Congress awaited any final
message he might have to send, caused it
to be made known that they would per-
form their duty by going to the Presi-
dents room at the Capitol, and If they
did not find him there would report the
fact to the Senate. assuming that he had
no further communication to make.
HARD WORK.
The President and most of the men,
bers of the Ca binet remained at the White
House considering Legislative matters
until about O'Clock this morning. They
reassembled in the Cabinet room again
at O'Clock this morning. All the de-
partments were represented, Mr.. Fair
child representing the Treasury
Department. Between 8 and 1880
the President had acted on all the bills
received by him up to a late hour. He
then repaired to the Capitol, upon assu-
rance from Speaker Carlisle that the Dis
trict OF Columbia bill and the general de-
ficiency bill would certainly fail unless
he did so. The President acted on all the
bills at the Capitol that he was able to
in the short time allotted to him. The
party returned to the White House about
l O'Clock this afternoon and there sepa-
rated. The President held his usual pub
lie reception In the East Room at / 80
O'Clock, and shook hands with about 200
roopta

ELEVENTH HOUR LUCK.
Greeley, Harris and Trotter Con-
firmed by the Senate.

greeley, Harris and TrOtter Com
firmed by the Senate.
WASHINGTON, March 4.-The Senate
to-day confirmed the nomination of Capt.
A. W. Greely to be chief signal officer
with the rank OF Brigadier General, and
James M. Trotter to be Recorder of Deeds
tor the District OF Columbia. On the CON-
tirmation of Trotter the vote stood 80 to
II. or the minority, three only, Messrs.
ingalls,, Sabin and Palmer, are Republi-
cans.
There seems to have been very little
contest IN the Senate over the contirma-
ton of Trotter, and no utterance OF the
Senate has been or is to be expected on
the subject. The action of the body,
though apparently inconsistent with the
principles enunciated in connection with
the Matthews case, upon the heels OF
which it so closely follows, is explained
In variety Of ways, TrOtter came, 1t is
urged, with an excellent record
as an eX-Union soldier, which,
with the Senate, counts for much.
No charge was made against him,
a business or political nature, and there
was nothing TO be said in his opposition
beyond the fact that he IS an alien to the
District. Upon this point 80 strongly
urged In the Matthews case it is stated
that the Senate has made record OF its
principles, having pronounced itself en-
phatically in favor of the selection of a
District man for purely local Office.
The following additional nominations
were also confirmed: Henry r. Harris, OF
Georgia, to be Third Assistant Postmas-
ter General; Dabney H. Maury, of Vir-
ginia, to be Envoy Extraordinary and
Minister PlenipOtentiary of the United
States to the Republic of Colombia; to be
Postmasters, o. ID. Derr at Roanoke, Va,
and M, Glennan at Norfolk, Va.

all failed to get beyond the stage Of gem

+ The bills to repeal the civil service law
and to grant woman suffrage were killed
in the House by adverse committee re-
ports and in the Senate by adverse test
votes.
The resolution favoring open executive
sessions was defeated la the SenaLe.
The Edmunds resolution calling for
the papers regarding appointments was
adopted by the Senate.
The resolutions to carry the Mexican
treaty into effect and to abrogate the Ha-

the failures of the Forty-nInth Congress-
the former being killed by an adverse
committee report and the latter falling to
secure an audience.
The postal telegraph bill and inter-
national copyright bill also failed.

A SERIOUS OMISSION.

The Deficiency Appropriation BilPs
Failure to Cause Inconvenience.
WASHINGTON, March 4.-The effect of
the failure OF the general deficiency bill
will be more serious than is generally be-
lleved, inasmuch as it contained provi-
sions for supplying pressing demands for
postal cards, stamps and other items con-
nected with the postal service. the denial
of which will, it is expected, seriously
embarrass the department and public.
The legal machinery of the government
will also be materially disarranged
during the remainder OF the fiscal year.
as no money will be available for Jurors,
witnesses, or marshals' fees, and many
prisoners-notably those confined at Fort
Smith, Ark.--cannot be tried for months
to come. A number of soldiers claims,
aggregating to $700, 600, which had been
certified by the Treasury, will fail also OF
settlement.
The officials OF the Navy Department
say that the failure of the general def
cheney bill will seriously embarrass the
work on the three cruisers Atlanta, Bos-
ton and Chicago. The bill, as agreed
upon in conference, appropriated S247, 900

remains to be done on her. 1t is esti-
mated that the completion Of the Boston

A Dangerous Package Found at the

JERSEY CRY, N. j., March A COLI
ored man who keeps the Pennsylvania
railroad ferry house clean, picked up a
small glass bottle from behind the door
Of the gentlemsn's toilet room in the
depot at midnight. The bottle, which
contained some kind OF acid, exploded in
his hand and the flooring caught fire. For
some time IL looked as though the big
building was doomed, but the company's
fire apparatus was brought out and the
fire was extinguished before any serious
damage had been done. A tramp who
had been in the toilet room just before the
explosion occurred was arrested on sus-
pIcion Of having placed the bottle back OF
the door. He stoutly protests Ignorance
OF the bottle. No clear evidence exists
against anybody.

The death roll OF this Congress was an
extraordinary one, comprising the un-
precedented number Of thirteen names
in the House and Senate. They are those
of Vice President Hendricks, President
of the Senate; senators Miller, of Califor-

Illinois, and Representatives Hahn, OF
Louisiana; Arnot, Beach and Dowdney,
of New York; Price, OF Wisconsin,; Cole,

the House against the sitting member,
